"Religion is like sausage; if it gives you pleasure, take care to never see it being made" (Source unknown)

The following 3 are all from Robert Heinlein:
"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects."

"The two highest achievements of the human mind are the twin concepts of loyalty and duty. Whenever these twin concepts fall into disrepute- get out of there fast! You may possibly save yourself, but it is too late to save that society. It is doomed."

"A true lady takes off her dignity with her clothes and does her whorish best. At other times you can be as modest and dignified as your persona requires."

"There are hardly any excesses of the most crazed psychopath that cannot easily be duplicated by a normal, kindly family man who just comes in to work every day and has a job to do." - Terry Pratchett

"Quae dant, quaeque negant, gaudent tamen esse rogatae!" - Publius Ovidius Naso (Translation: Whether they give it to you or turn you down, girls are always pleased to have been asked! But it's much punchier in Latin.)
